Donald Trump and the Scourge of Populism
Populism is a means of speaking to voters, a mode of speech that Michael Kazin once called “the populist persuasion.” During times of economic stress and cultural change, populism often becomes a popular means of communication, and has been used by aspirants for the presidency ranging from William Jennings Bryan to Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump. It is particularly potent when conditions exist that refute historian John Crozier’s description of …

The Death of a Presidency
During the past fifty years, presidents have had moments when the public disapproves of their performances. George W. Bush is one of them. Successful presidents have been able to reverse their low standing when they can change the subject. Such was the case for Harry Truman in 1948, Ronald Reagan in 1987, and Bill Clinton in 1995. Truman got back to the New Deal/Fair Deal agenda, Reagan acknowledged mistakes in the Iran-Contra scandal, and Clinto…

E. E. Schattschneider and the Responsible Party Model
Shortly before his death in 1971 E. E. Schattschneider said, “I suppose the most important thing I have done in my field is that I have talked longer and harder and more persistently and enthusiastically about political parties than anyone else alive.” Schattschneider's claim is not boastful, but factual. Exactly fifty years ago he completed Party Government , a book that remains a “must” read for students of the U.S. party system. But Schattschn…

All in the Family
Electoral candidates tend to avoid issues that involve challenges to established values. But in the absence of a strong party organization capable of mitigating cultural divisions, troublesome issues, such as abortion and the death penalty, may be introduced into the campaign to the party's detriment. Professor White analyzes the 1978 Democratic primary in Massachusetts from this perspective and suggests ways of preventing social cleavages from b…

The present study investigates the utility of employing an interdisciplinary set of variables to predict labor force decisions. Comparisons of demographic, economic, high school experience, and psychological-motivational variables indicated that the best prediction of the post-high school plans of 1,074 high school seniors resulted from high school experience variables.
